This bathroom took the backburner to most all other projects and didn't get started until Hez was around 5 months old. Embarassingly, it was once our little "break room" because when we moved in we had no sink to wash dishes or a counter for the microwave and coffee pot. But it started to get a little inconvienent for guests to have to go upstairs to our bathroom and with plans for some overnight visits from grandparents, we knew it was time to tackle it. After a lot of thought, we decided it was going to be well worth our while to leave the tub and have it refinished. This wasn't an option I had ever considered because I had no idea you could refinish fiberglass, I thought only porcelain. Had I known sooner I would have just kept the shower in our bathroom too! But for $300 we hired the job out and are loving our sparkly white tub!
Finally, a tile job where I'm not pregnant! Eli moved the light box and a switch to make room for the new vanity and cabinet, and plastered all the walls.
Done! And with one day to spare before our overnight guests arrived! I wanted the bathroom to be slightly fun since it is Baby's, but not scream kid's bathroom because it is also for guests. The greyscale alphabet curtain gave me exactly the look I wanted.
We still have a small list to finish: one baseboard, paint the bathroom door and cut it shorter so the rug doesn't catch, install the handles on the cabinets (have them), do a little backsplash (also have the tile, just need the grout and the time) and I would like to hang a small shelf above the toilet.

Loving the tall cabinet for all storage space, perfect for lots of little baby towels and soaps!
Safe and cute.
The "hot" and "cold" art above the towel bar. I took these pictures...they are the kitchen faucet! I printed them out on regular paper on the computer because I just wanted to get them up, and I still have not developed the actual photos!
